Computerized Processing and Analysis of CT Images for Developing a New Criterion in COPD Diagnosis [PDF]
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most prevalent and dangerous pulmonary diseases in the world. It is forecasted that COPD will be the third deadly disease in the future. Therefore, developing non-invasive methods for diagnosis of the disease would be helpful for physicians and patients. Methods: Based on clinical
